10 Unique Little Black Dresses

By


Everyone and their mother have a little black dress. We're all familiar with the standard fare - a short, classic, nondescript number that can be dressed up or dressed down, and transition from day to night; the go-to dress that will suit most every occasion and get-together, and make you look effortlessly fabulous in the process. But what about something a little different?
